Researchers have discovered that hedgehogs can hear ultrasound, a surprising ability that could help protect them from cars. Since road traffic kills large numbers of hedgehogs, scientists believe ...

Meet the European hedgehog ( Erinaceus europaeus ), small nocturnal insectivores that turn into a spiny ball of death when they feel threatened. Unfortunately, the mammals are rapidly declining.

A new study provides the first visual evidence showing that brain circuits in living animals can be activated by ultrasound waves projected into specific patterns (holograms). Led by scientists at NYU ...

You might not hear it, but rodents are known to speak to each other in voices so high-pitched that human ears can’t pick them up. Now scientists have found that these vocalizations might have a second ...

The proposal is based on their findings which show for the first time that hedgehogs can hear high-frequency ultrasound.
